A proposed event is considered to be a major fundraising event for HUUF if the goal of the event is to raise at least $500 for the Fellowship, after expenses are deducted. The HUUF Fundraising Committee is responsible for proposed major fundraising events and coordinating the HUUF calendar for major fundraising events. If proceeds from proposed events are less than $500, or if donations made on behalf of proposed events is less than $500, the HUUF Fundraising Committee does not need to review such events for scheduling. However, all proposed events held on HUUF property, whether sponsored by HUUF members or not, must either pay the room/facility rental fee or if raising money for HUUF, should budget 10% of funds raised to go towards Building Reserve Fund for use of the building.
For example, an art workshop is proposed to take place in the sanctuary, in which participants will pay a $10 fee, and $100 of fees collected will be donated to the Fellowship. This is not considered to be a major fundraising event and does not need to be reviewed by the Fundraising Committee. It should be scheduled with the HUUF office administrator. The $100 to be donated to HUUF meets/exceeds the facility rental costs.
The HUUF Fundraising Committee is not responsible for the coordination of the fundraising events. The Committee seeks to foster/facilitate the best use of HUUF human and building resources for such events. If you have questions, please contact the Fundraising Committee at
fund@huuf.org or committee member, Ilene Harris, at 725-9043, or
ileneharris@gmail.com.
Please submit this online form or submit a paper form to the office by the first Wednesday of every month. Ideally, this form is submitted at least 6 weeks in advance of your proposed event. The Fundraising Committee reviews proposed major fundraising events for inclusion on the HUUF Calendar and announcements the second Wednesday of each month. You will be notified by the Committee of approval by the 3rd week of the month. The Fundraising Committee will contact you by the third week of the month.
It is recommended that, when appropriate, ideas for fundraising events are discussed with and supported by appropriate Fellowship committees.
